Chapter 138

Cheng Feng was invited into an empty office and waited nervously for Teacher Cen to arrive.

He looked around anxiously, and the magnificent decoration style suddenly came into his sight. Cheng Feng suddenly didn't feel nervous anymore, but instead had an inexplicable feeling of being both amused and helpless.

Their Nightmare University is really good at having fun. They opened the Fengdu Ghost City before, and now it has been upgraded to the interstellar era. Just now, he was looking for the administrative building in the "palace" and almost couldn't find it. He recognized it by the clock tower.

Putting aside the fact that you can't go home, the experience of being an NPC here to trick players is actually quite interesting.

Thinking of the word "home", Cheng Feng's eyes dimmed slightly, and a bitter feeling spread to the tip of his tongue.

He didn't feel sad for too long, as the door opened again.

Cheng Feng was very familiar with the person who came in. She had black hair, fair skin, and a pair of amber eyes that revealed an inhuman coldness. She was so beautiful that she didn't look like a real person. Who else could she be but his mentor?

Cheng Feng hurriedly stood up and shouted excitedly, "Teacher Cen!"

Cen Xun glanced at him and closed the door behind him: "Are you awake?"

"Yeah!" Cheng Feng was in high spirits after seeing his very reliable mentor. For some reason, although Teacher Cen had not changed at all, he felt a very strong sense of intimacy after seeing Teacher Cen.

"Please sit down." Cen Xun found a seat for himself and looked at Cheng Feng sitting opposite him.

After the nightmare world was restarted, H University, which served as an internal test copy, became Cen Xun's ghost domain, and the students inside were transformed into low-level monsters. They lost their human sanity and could only execute simple commands.

When Cen Xun made a deal with the old principal, he promised the old principal that he would protect these students. Therefore, when operating Nightmare University, he only let these students be NPCs in the copy, and usually used points to support them well, which was considered to be the most benevolent thing he could do.

After that, many things happened and Cen Xun no longer paid attention to his students, until today when Cheng Feng suddenly regained consciousness and came to his door.

"What do you want to tell me?"

Cheng Feng shyly sat across from Cen Xun, then nervously said, "Teacher Cen, I just remembered something from the past."

Cen Xun was a little surprised: "All?"

"Yes, all of them." Cheng Feng nodded affirmatively: "I remembered my family, my experience as a college student at H University, and how I died."

This was unexpected for Cen Xun, but after a moment's reflection, he guessed the reason. The Domain Lord's upgrade would lead to upgrades for his followers. Perhaps his leap to the primary level of Yaoyue in one go was too big, leading to such a chain reaction.

After a moment's thought, Cen Xun understood Cheng Feng's purpose in looking for him: "Are you looking for me to ask about returning home?"

"Yeah," Cheng Feng said embarrassedly, "I know, I'm in a nightmare world now, not the real world anymore. Going home should be very troublesome, just like a fairy tale. But, if I don't even ask, I feel a little unwilling."

"So, I want to sound you out first," Cheng Feng scratched his head. "If you don't agree, just pretend I never said anything. After all, I'm already dead, so it's time to accept reality."

Cen Xun looked at Cheng Feng and told him the cruel truth: "You want to go back, but your family may not accept you as you are now."

Cheng Feng choked for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "I know I'm a weirdo now, but even if I can't meet them, I'm satisfied enough to just see them from afar and make sure they're all right."

"I really miss them." Cheng Feng's eyes were red, and he wiped his face hastily, his voice a little distorted: "Teacher, I, I haven't had time to say goodbye to them."

Cen Xun was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand."

Cheng Feng raised his eyes expectantly.

"Sending you back isn't a difficult task." Cen Xun said calmly, "But the outcome may not be a happy one for everyone."

Seeing hope, Cheng Feng's eyes lit up and he immediately assured her, "It's okay. No matter what the outcome is, I'm mentally prepared!"

While Cheng Feng was happy, he suddenly thought of a fatal question. He looked at Cen Xun with a worried look: "But Teacher Cen, if you send me back like this, will you be punished by the principal?"

Cheng Feng still remembers his mentor's incredible plan to "seize power and usurp the throne". He doesn't know whether Cen Xun has succeeded in taking the position of principal, but he seems to have heard from the players that Teacher Cen has been suppressed by the principal. Not only does he live in a shabby dormitory, but he is also sent to very dangerous places on business trips. He is so pitiful.

Cheng Feng couldn't help but worry that the request he made would make his mentor's situation worse.

"Cen Xun stood up and glanced at Cheng Feng: "Don't listen to gossip."

Cheng Feng muttered "Oh" and felt relieved when he saw that Teacher Cen did not seem to have been subjected to lynching by the principal.

"If anyone else wants to go home, go make a list and send them back together in a few days." Seeing that he was looking at him eagerly, Cen Xun simply assigned him a task.

Cheng Feng happily agreed.

Go home, go home!

Everyone can finally go home!

In the interstellar background, the player's main task is to fight against the "Federal" army, and the low-level NPCs in Nightmare University become dispensable, and it doesn't matter if they take a day off.

More importantly, what kind of chain reaction will these students have when they return to the real world?

Cen Xun sat in his chair, opened his panel and took a look.

[Acquired Faith Value: 2,336,989,680 (You are the worthy president of Nightmare University. Please annex more strange domains and continue to expand your group of believers!)]

The faith value has reached an astonishing 2.3 billion. It was not until now, after recovering his memory, that Cen Xun finally understood the role of the faith value.

For the second-generation gods, faith value is also one of the indispensable conditions for becoming a god, so after Chaos's will was integrated into the system, this value was also used as a criterion for judgment.

As for why the faith value reached an astonishing 2.3 billion, Cen Xun guessed that it was related to the new activities recently launched by the Nightmare System.

By promoting the QR code, each new player in Nightmare University will gain one more faith value.

According to the rules of the event, when 50% of the real world's population becomes players, the event will automatically end, and the domain owner who ranks first in the total number of promotions will receive a mysterious reward issued by "Nightmare World".

Mysterious reward!

Cen Xun probably guessed what the so-called mysterious reward was.

When making a deal with Chaos, Cen Xun learned the whole story.

In the realm above the god level, there are two camps: the Light Camp and the Dark Camp. Chaos is one of the gods of the Light Camp.

The fallen dark creatures will never stop polluting and invading various worlds, while the gods of the light camp are responsible for protecting these worlds.

As one of the guardian forces, Chaos was unfortunately ambushed by the dark camp and fell in this world. His body was alienated by dark creatures and continuously emitted pollution, which directly led to the appearance of monsters.

This also caused his nine sons of God to be born from pollution. If nothing unexpected happens, these sons of God will fall into the abyss one after another, join the dark camp, and bring destruction to more worlds.

He must choose the only successor from among them and ensure that the successor will become a member of the camp of light after inheriting the throne.

Therefore, the proposition He left to Cen Xun in the transaction was to learn "love".

Only when Cen Xun learns to love will He feel at ease to hand over the Godhead to Cen Xun.

If nothing unexpected happens, the "mysterious reward" at the end of the event should be the divinity that Chaos promised to Cen Xun.

Cen Xun calculated that before the end of the event, about 400 million people would need to become players. Although 400 million seems like a lot, it will actually be almost time.

After turning off the panel, Cen Xun relaxed for a while and went over his plan again.

At this moment, Wu Sa knocked on the door and came in: "Principal, Dean Yun wants to see you."

Cen Xun collected his thoughts and nodded, "Let him in."

Not long after, Yun Shiqing entered the principal's office under the guidance of Wu Sa. Wu Sa quietly left and closed the office door, leaving Yun Shiqing standing alone in the shadows, staring silently at Cen Xun behind the desk.

His old enemy, who was once a mortal enemy, was now standing in the same room with him. The relationship between friend and foe had been reversed, and now the organization he had given everything for had become his enemy.

This scene is simply ironic.

Yun Shiqing's face was extremely haggard, but somehow, when he thought of the current situation, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He pursued the truth and discovered that the disaster many years ago actually came from human beings themselves. Isn't this ridiculous?

Yun Shiqing still remembered how he stood in front of Huang Liang many years ago and resisted the temptation of the illusion with his passion. His heart and his will were all stubbornly pursuing his dream and the peace he wanted.

This kind of stubbornness even gave rise to the [solid heart like a world] that was strong enough to resist the [illusionary world].

But now Yun Shiqing touched his chest. The truth buried in the past had created a gap here, and it was crumbling. The only thing that supported him to keep going was his original ideal.

Peace.

Return peace to mankind.

For this reason, Yun Shiqing would not hesitate even if it meant turning the blade against his former colleagues.

"I thought you would collapse." Cen Xun said calmly, "Have you recovered so quickly?"

"The past cannot be changed, but the future can still be pursued. Even if you collapse, it will not help."

Yun Shiqing's tone was still reasonable, but his voice was filled with an unconcealable dullness: "I want to ask you to allow me to leave the nightmare world."

Cen Xun raised his eyelids and looked at Yun Shiqing: "Reason."

Yun Shiqing's expression was filled with bitterness: "I can't let a leader who made that kind of decision continue to sit in that position."

"Kill them all, and then what?"

Cen Xun's eyes were almost indifferent: "Can you guarantee that the next leader won't make the same decision?"

Yun Shiqing stood there in a daze.

The existence of the supernatural families was like a blood-sucking vine, rotting the entire officialdom to its very roots. If we didn't uproot them once and for all, even removing the topmost branches and leaves would be of no use.

"I have a better idea." Cen Xun smiled: "Do you want to hear it?"

Cen Xun and Yun Shiqing talked in the office for a long time, so long that Feng Jihan, who was waiting outside the door, became a little impatient.

Just when Feng Jihan was about to push the door open a little to see if the two of them were fighting, the door in front of him finally opened.

Feng Jihan immediately straightened up, pretending to be passing by casually, and looked at the captain and Cen Xun in turn to confirm that the two were not fighting.

"Captain, what did you talk about in there?"

Yun Shiqing smiled and said nothing more: "We talked a little about the Heresy Monitoring Bureau. You can go in."

Yun Shiqing made way for him, and Feng Jihan didn't react for a moment and walked in subconsciously. When he came to his senses, Yun Shiqing had already left.

Feng Jihan did not follow. Yun Shiqing probably needed more independent space to think now.

After entering the office, Feng Jihan walked around behind the desk and rested his head on Cen Xun's shoulder without saying a word.

The scattered silver hair fell on Cen Xun's shoulders. Cen Xun reached out and grabbed a handful of it. He asked him, "You almost fell into a monster because you learned about the existence of the New World Peace Treaty?"

Feng Jihan grumbled, "Hmm," and said, "I didn't expect you to propose this kind of agreement. We were only one step away from peace, but it was destroyed by those high-ranking officials. I can't accept it."

"Why did you propose the New World Peace Treaty at that time?" Feng Jihan turned his head and asked him, "Was it for me?"

"No," unexpectedly, Cen Xun denied it, "It was to confirm a hypothesis of mine."

"What is love?" Cen Xun stroked the soft ends of her hair with his fingers. "Does this kind of love have to be true love?"

"Since Chaos wants a qualified successor, I want to give it a try."

"If I pretend to stop the war for you, that wouldn't be the 'love' He wants."

Pretending to be for his sake, Feng Jihan remained silent for a moment.

Isn't this equivalent to Chaos stipulating that children can only inherit the estate after getting married, but Cen Xun pretends to have a marriage of convenience with his old father in order to defraud him of his inheritance?

"Obviously, this won't work." Cen Xun said quietly, "Not only will Chaos disagree, but the human leaders won't agree either."

The failed attempt forced Cen Xun to look for other methods.

If he cannot learn to love now, then if time were reversed and he forgot everything, with only a blank space left in his mind, would he be able to learn to love?

So Cen Xun almost madly chose to reverse time, turning back the time of all the heirs to their infancy, and returning to the starting point together.

Feng Jihan: "Then you are now eligible to inherit the estate, right? Have you inherited the godhood?"

Cen Xun said, "I don't know."

"Huh? Don't know?" Feng Jihan raised his body and looked at Cen Xun in confusion.

"Who knows what kind of 'love' He wants," Cen Xun said lazily, "For me, just learning to love you is enough, but for Him, it may not be enough."

As far as Cen Xun knew, God loved all living beings, not just one person.

Feng Jihan reached down and held Cen Xun's fingers: "What should we do then? Are you going to love someone else?"

"I can't love anyone more," Cen Xun said frankly, "All my love is given to my little bird."

Feng Jihan felt a warmth in his heart, and his fingers holding Cen Xun immediately tightened.

Because of Cen Xun's words, he easily became confused.

Cen Xun turned his face slightly, and a cold kiss fell on Feng Jihan's lips. Cen Xun put his forehead against his, and almost whispered, "Because you love this world, I can also be a little partial to it, that's all."

Feng Jihan's lips moved slightly: "I"

"Shh." Cen Xun put his fingers against his lips: "Remember what I told you?"

"Believe me, you will love that new world."

Cen Xun smiled and said, "I haven't fully fulfilled this promise yet."
